Sindh Golf Association President Asad Khan revealed that the club's grass would be damaged by sea water, adding that it would take time to fix the damage.

The water also reportedly entered the gym at the golf club as shown in a photo making the rounds on social media.

Khan further said that, even if the water recedes swiftly, the salt in it would still have caused severe damage to the grass on the course.

Meanwhile, sea water also intruded into the parking area of the Karachi Boat Club.

Sources close to the matter said that the authorities were busy clearing out the water and that so far no damage has been caused to the boats.
